I am looking for a set of double dress clips that combine together to form a brooch.
1. Does anyone still make them?
2. I have googled, froogled, etsied, and Ebayed, and can't find what I want...is there a better source you can recommend for antique jewelry?
3. I DID find a Tiffany piece, but it was $14,000. I am trying to stay under $200. :)
4. Does anyone have modeling pictures? I would love to see how modern fashionistas wear these creations. (I need the clips for a dress, but would like to get a lot more use out of them.)

Thank you!
 
Did you try an antique store? I used to see them sometimes, about 12 years ago, though. How about trying a search online of the manufacturer's names, like Coro?

I don't know if anyone is still making them. Is Retro '30's/'40's jewelry still in?
 
I would second looking at antique or vintage stores. I found a Coro duette in excellent condition (no missing or cloudy stones) at one of our local ones for a wonderful price. I'll try to get a picture of it for you. (We're renovating and my stuff is everywhere!)
